Why train in digital sobriety?

An ecological urgency and business opportunity for responsible organizations

😤 The digital ecological urgency

Digital already represents 4% of global CO₂ emissions and increases by 8% per year. Without action, this share will reach 8% in 2030.

• 78% of impact comes from equipment manufacturing
• 94 physical copies created for one email with attachment vs 1 single with FileVert
• Exponential accumulation of forgotten files in clouds
• Cruel lack of training in eco-responsible best practices

Our approach: Actionable training

Comprehensive program combining theory, practice and impact measurement to sustainably transform your digital habits and those of your teams.

• Scientific data with sources (ADEME, Shift Project, ARCOM)
• Concrete techniques: compression, optimal duration, avoid the superfluous
• Real-time impact calculator with meaningful equivalences
• Creating a collective ripple effect in the organization
